CCNA Home Lab!!! (With Video Part 2) (Posted Nov 8, 2023)

All my equipment has arrived save for a few wings for the routers. I have waited to start plugging things in until everything is assembled. You will see I begin turning on the equipment here in this video.
I added another power strip after considering the joule count for possible power issues due to not having a UPS for this set up. The first strip I had mounted already had 300 Joules, which I kept on the rack for a secondary power source for hosts.
